Welcome
Oort and Storj invite builders to migrate their apps from Web2 to Web3 or create new creative Web3 applications. We’re looking for those passionate about using distributed solutions to build, launch and deploy applications (dApps) that are truly distributed. Builders are incentivized to build applications using Oort for any blockchain use cases and Storj as the underlying cloud object storage.
Distributed technology has seen an exponential interest in recent years. Most of the infrastructure is still running and maintained on public clouds. This hackathon is great for developers passionate about furthering the migration of Web2 to Web3.
Sponsor Background
Storj - offers decentralized cloud object storage as a complete replacement for centralized providers like Amazon’s S3 or Azure Block Storage. Having a diverse network of more than 16,000 Storj Node Operators around the globe, Storj can host your video, images, NFTs, and backups. Not only that, your data will enjoy end-to-end encryption, multi-region by default, have speeds up to 7,000 Gbps, and 11 nines durability by using the only Web3 storage option backed by SLAs.
Oort - Oort (formerly Computecoin) is a Web3 data infrastructure for simple and massive adoption. Oort offers full-service decentralized storage solutions that developers can use without knowing a thing about Web3.
